On the last day of Angie Quick’s “Has Love Made You The Enemy” exhibition, we hosted a conversation with artists Angie Quick and Susan Day. Though they work in different mediums (painting and clay, respectively), both artists use figuration and their personal history as part of their work. Through their conversation we learned how each artist approaches their own artistic practice and how this is Quick’s most personal body of paintings yet.
In November 2024, Michael Gibson Gallery proudly celebrates 40 years in the art business. In recognition of this milestone anniversary, Michael has curated an exhibition from his personal art collection paying tribute to some of the artists who he has had the privilege of knowing and representing over the past 4 decades.
